Thiruvananthapuram district Firstpost/Ashraf Padanna Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan came to power last year on the promise of creating 25 million jobs including half a million in the IT sector But he could not initiate any major project with large-scale employment potential so far On 5 September the national strike called by trade unions against labour reforms turned into a bandh in Kerala with Vijayan himself making a call to make it a success On 28 November Kerala again witnessed another state-sponsored hartal this time against the scrapping of high-denomination currencies putting people through more hardships They also laid a siege to the Reserve Bank of India (RB) office hitting the cash flow further Earlier he and his ministers staged a sit-in before the RBI office with jurisdiction over Kerala and Union Territory of Lakshadweep true to its policy of "agitation and administration" carried out parallelly The Confederation of Indian Industries (CII) estimates the losses by every statewide hartalat around Rs 1500 crore to the trade and industry alone besides human sufferings and job losses Tourists mostly backpackers desperately searching for food and water is a common sight during hartals "Any excuse for a hartal from the party that claims to stand for development Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has called 22 hartals in Kerala already this year" tweeted Congress leader Shashi Tharoor who had spoken against his own party holding people to ransom The Congress party-led United Democratic Front (UDF) enforced a state-wide shutdown on 6 April accusing the police of assaulting a woman petitioner at their headquarters "In a democracy everyone has the right to protest or air their views But you have no right to restrict freedom of others to work and move freely" said former chief minister Oommen Chandy In 2013 while in office the Congress leader was hurt on his forehead and chest when CPM workers pelted him with stones in Kannur the hotbed of political violence and home to many CPM leaders including Vijayan The mob was led by CPM district leaders But he asked his party to refrain from calling a shutdown or protest His government’s legislation banning shutdowns affecting normal life which has not seen the light of the day says those blocking roads and closing shops and offices will attract six months in jail and a fine of Rs 10000 Those who block the staff and individuals visiting offices hospitals schools and hotels were also to face similar punishment Flash strikes are completely banned and those who want to use hartal

measures to ensure that normal life is not paralysed and that those who call hartals or strikes should not compel anyone to participate Rejecting the then Left government’s claim that people enjoyed shutdowns the court had even asked it to call in the Army if necessary to see that normal life is not hit and its order is carried out in its real spirit Ten years later in 2014 the high court intervened again and asked the state to bring in legislation to control the menace But both the government and the political parties big and small continued to ignore it and enforced paralysing shutdowns at will Kerala High Court was the first to ban bandhs in India way back in 1997 which was later upheld by the apex court and made applicable to the entire country But soon politicians began calling hartals to enforce shutdowns The name made no difference The high court again intervened and held the government responsible for the free movement of people which now comes to the aid of individuals who seek legal solace with little support from the authorities "The problem here is that there are people who love hartals so that they can stay home and enjoy their drinks" says historian MGS Narayanan "And during the hartals the criminals even those who do not have a party affiliation engage in violence They are waiting for an opportunity to turn violent" By: Bloomberg | Updated:
